I'm not a Linux guy, so hopefully someone else more knowledgeable
can chime in here, but if you want to add to your CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS,
you need to avoid creating a semi-colon-separated list by moving the
quote mark:<br>
<br>
<code>set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -fPIC")</code><br>
<br>
Also, "LINUX" is not defined by default using CMake, so unless
you're detecting Linux and setting "LINUX" to true somewhere before
this, the if block will be skipped. UNIX is defined by default, but
this includes OSX, so if you really want just Linux, use something
like<br>
<br>
<code>if(${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Linux")</code><br>
<br>
Finally, I guess "CMAKE_CSS_FLAGS" is a typo?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

if (LINUX)

Is this NOT the way I should be doing this? It doesn't really "fell" correct but nothing else (including this) seems to work.
Help?
Thanks
